How far are you prepared to go to become a PADI instructor and Live the dream as a Dive professional ?

Daily Challenge in the Big Buddy house competition, Today the Candidates where challenged to a treasure hunt for very random items. They were divided into 2 teams and had 5 minutes to plan where to find all the things they needed to find to win the challenge.

These are the items that each team had to find to accomplish the task and WIN the challenge.

These had to be represented to the Judges Minni Vangsgaard and Robin Bylynd.

After about 20 minutes the Teams had all they needed but ONE item….. funny enough that item was a “PADI pen” so it all came down to how much they wanted the PADI pen to win the competition. Minni sat with a bunch of them and bids came in from various teams on how much they would pay or what they would do to get one of the PADI PENS she had in her possession but she didn’t let of of her PADI PENS. Eople ran around like headless chickens desperately looking for the “golden Pen” the PADI pen.

GRRRRR where is the PADI PEN ?? I bet i can get it from the PADI RM

It went so far that they tried to contact on of the examiners and the PADI regional manager to get a hold of a PEN …. Without success after 30 minutes and people driving around to various centers and various places to find the PADI PEN both teams made a smart move making their way to our Platinum course director Minnis house to find one there. However the Spanish not as polite as the English or maybe not as smart don’t know you be the judges of that. But the Minni lovers team was the most bold one they barged in the house and managed to find a PADI PEN which made them win the challenge. Very well done Mini Lovers !!!
